British Telecom Mobile Cleaning Equipment Demonstration

A3 Machines are a preferred supplier to British Telecom with whom we have previously provided a range of scrubber dryers in various locations around the UK; we also carry out their servicing and repairs .

Fulfilling Corporate Machine Maintenance Service Contracts

A3 Machines fulfil floor cleaning machine service contracts for some very large organisations including British Telecom who have various locations throughout the UK. Our service contract which is fulfilled by our team of factory trained engineers includes on-site breakdown cover and preventative maintenance on all types and brands of cleaning and industrial equipment. It is designed to ensure the availability of your floor cleaning machinery so your cleaning schedules are un-interrupted. With a history that dates back to 1846 British Telecom has a huge infrastructure with a large number of facilities that need to be maintained. Planned maintenance visits reduce the number of breakdowns and we have a regular schedule worked out for the BT FM team to do this.
